Filter by:Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common acute complication of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). DKA is characterized by hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis, increased levels of ketone bodies in blood and urine. This leads to osmotic diuresis and severe depletion of water and electrolytes from both the intra- and extracellular fluid (ECF) compartments. Estimation of the degree of dehydration for children admitted with DKA is of great clinical importance. The calculation of the amount of deficit therapy depends on the estimated degree of dehydration. However, the degree of dehydration present during DKA is difficult to be clinically assessed. Hyperosmolality tends to preserve intravascular volume with maintenance of peripheral pulses, blood pressure, and urine output until extreme volume depletion occurs. Metabolic acidosis leads to hyperventilation and dry oral mucosa as well as decreased peripheral vascular resistance and cardiac function . consequently, hyper-osmolality may lead to an underestimation of the degree of dehydration, whereas metabolic acidosis may lead to an overestimation of the degree of dehydration. This makes the physical findings unreliable in this setting. Several clinical and biochemical markers were suggested to assess and stage the degree of dehydration at hospital admission. The blood urea nitrogen , hematocrit , plasma albumin are useful markers of the degree of ECF contraction.However, Several previous studies demonstrated that there was no agreement between assessed and measured degree of dehydration which is calculated according to change in body weight at admission and after correction of dehydration. there were tendencies to overestimated or underestimate the degree of dehydration between different physicians. The assessment of the magnitude of dehydration in DKA is of major interest and continues to be a subject of research. This study aims to assess the association between different clinical and laboratory parameters in children with diabetic ketoacidosis and the degree of dehydration at hospital admission among those children.
Benign hypertrophy of the prostate (BPH) is a disease seen in 20% of men over the age of 50 and in 40% of those over the age of 70. The gold standard in the treatment of BPH is transurethral resection of the prostate using high-frequency diathermy. Today, this process is done with the bipolar technique, in which isotonic saline (isotonic sodium chloride %0.9) is used as the irrigation fluid. This irrigation fluid, which is used after long operation and deep tissue resection, can enter the systemic circulation through the opened venous sinuses. It has been shown in clinical studies that postoperative acute hyperchloremia (serum Cl level > 110 mmol/L) develops after the use of intravenous normal saline solution in large amounts in the perioperative period. Our aim is to detect hyperchloremia and associated metabolic acidosis without anion gap in the follow-up of these patients. Our primary hypothesis in this study is that hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis will develop due to the high amount of normal saline used in TUR-P. .
ST-analysis of the foetal ECG (STAN®) is another second line technique for intrapartum foetal monitoring. Combining ST-analysis with standard CTG interpretation aims to identify hypoxic foetuses more accurately than CTG alone. The STAN® method identifies changes in the ST-interval of the foetal ECG that occur in the presence of foetalcentral hypoxia The aim of this studie is to investigate if the foetal lactate blood sampling is still useful when STAN® monitoring is already being used as a second line technique for intrapartum foetal monitoring if the fetal heart rate is abnormal without a significant ST event Nowadays in the Montpellier hospital's protocol, the investigators have to check the value of lactate sampling in case of le STAN doesn't detect an ST event. So this studie can change the Montpellier hospital's protocol and avoid useless fetal blood sampling
This proposed study suggests that peripheral tissue acidosis sensed by the somatosensory system (sngception) would evoke the sng perception in the brain. This hypothesis is based on investigators preliminary data that the peripheral muscle acidosis will evoked the central sng perception. In this study, investigators want to determine if there is the correlation between the flow rate of drug application and sng or pain. Also, they try to find if the pH of a solution will affect muscle acidosis.
Metabolic acidosis is a common problem that occurs with worsening chronic kidney disease. Dietary acid can build up when the kidneys are not working well. This can be associated with a higher risk of worsening kidney function and death. The usual treatment is a medication called sodium bicarbonate which works to balance the acids in the body. The medication however often does not work and causes side effects. Consumption of alkalizing fruit and vegetables may work as a treatment for metabolic acidosis. This trial is being done to see if fruit and vegetables, provided via home delivery, can become a viable management for metabolic acidosis in patients with chronic kidney disease.
To obtain short-term and long-term clinical safety information, in pediatric and adult patients with PA and MMA treated with Carbaglu®.
Lower serum bicarbonate levels, even within the normal laboratory range, in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) are associated with an increased risk of graft loss, cardiovascular events and mortality. Because acid retention is common in KTRs, it is plausible that alkali therapy in KTRs may also result in improved vascular and graft function. The investigators will perform a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, 12 month study in 120 KTRs to examine the effect of sodium bicarbonate therapy on surrogate markers of CVD and graft function. The overall hypothesis is that treatment with bicarbonate will improve indicators of vascular and graft function in KTRs by decreasing complement activation.
Skeletal muscle metabolic health is critical for mobility and an underrecognized target of metabolic acidosis in chronic kidney disease. Impaired muscle mitochondrial metabolism underlies poor physical endurance increasing the risk of mobility disability. The proposed project will use precise in vivo tools to study the pathophysiology of poor physical endurance in a clinical trial treating metabolic acidosis among persons living with chronic kidney disease.
This is a study of mRNA-3705 in participants with isolated elevated methylmalonic acid (MMA) due to methylmalonyl-coenzyme A (CoA) mutase (MUT) deficiency. The main goal of the study is to assess safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of mRNA-3705.
The present study aims to evaluate the strict application of the 2018 European Society of Cardiology guidelines on myocardial revascularization, that recommends to check renal function if patients have taken metformin immediately before angiography and withhold metformin if renal function deteriorates. The aim of this study is to assess the safety of metformin in diabetic patients undergoing coronary angiography in terms of risk of lactic acidosis and to individuate eventual predictors of augmented lactate after coronary angiography.
